Despite being shorter and younger, the Adena volleyball team was on the cusp of upsetting Ridgewood, taking the Generals to all five sets before eventually falling 25-18, 21-25, 20-25, 25-20, 15-8 in Saturday's Division III regional final at Logan High School.

It took a few minutes for the Warriors to settle in as the Generals exploded early to a 18-5 first set lead. Adena coach Laura Smith said she thought "Oh Lord, they're going to kill us" and called a timeout to tell her team to quit looking at the scoreboard, relax and execute.
